Me Made May: Days Two Through Six

All I have to say is that it's a lot harder to get dressed in the morning when 3/4 of your closet is "off-limits." Obviously the only way to remedy that is to up the ratio of store-bought to me-made clothes. Perhaps even someday most of the clothes in my closet will be made by me.

It's my dream to have the majority of my clothes be handmade too! I have been wearing handmade clothes this month, although I haven't been taking pictures. I've suprised myself because so far, I've worn six different outfits with at least one handmade item! I like your self-drafted dress...shirring is something I haven't attempted yet.

Look at you! Rockin it!! You're inspiring the heck out of me, girl. And HEY guess what? i've actually been doing MMM but not documenting it...just seeing if I can. Wearing the same 4 tops over and over, but whatevs. ;)

All of your outfits look great! I especially like the green dress and the tiny pocket tank. This is my first MMM and I am having so much more fun than I thought I would (although there is still a lot of the month to go!)

These are awesome! I am trying to build up my nerves to start sewing for myself and your sewing is totally inspirational - I made a top for my little girl out of the same fabric you used for Day 6. I love that fabric so much!

Oh my gosh, somehow I missed most of these on your blog! I absolutely love that split back tiny pocket tank, esp with those hot pants. Love the shirred dress and the last tee too. I think you have a really good eye for picking fabric that makes your clothes look very 'store bought'! Keep em coming...

Welcome
